Dirty shame.

There are two Us from a tagger on the building behind the man with his left arm extended near the couple leaning against the lamp post on the right.

U2

And that day marked on the calendar to the right foreground is probably Green Day.

It helps to use a photo editor with zoom.

To the right of the Iron Maiden in the center, The Police (walking away while one is "Watching" over his shoulder).

Who's the blond girl on the balcony on the left side with bubble gum? Brittany? Hillary Duff? Who knows? She reminds me of school.

[Isaac Sauvage]

Is Spoon a major group?

apparently it's a group. an indie band:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spoon_(band)

but i lose respect for the virgin artist, if so.
after all, you can take almost any word or combination of words and there's prolly an indy band out there with that name.

who are the dudes on the roof looking at Kong?
what's the cowboy doing to his arm? [EDIT] Explained by ANDROID below
who are the guys in white? (is one of them wearing a "SlipKnot" around his neck?)
----> maybe they're The Proclaimers [EDIT] Better guess by PcwaG below...
and the coloured panels behind them?

 

[ANDROID]

MicroHyperion: The cowboy is shooting up heroin,,and thus Jane's Addiction.. Jane, as in Tarzan's woman, is next to mainline.

The colored panels look like Doors, as in Jim Morrison and the... though there is a door or two in the Deep Purple hotel.

Although DaVinci painted Mona LIsa..his painting has no kid or child......which makes it a "Madonna ..mother w/child, also Kknown as Mary mother of Jesus, holding Jesus...

 

[Meecro Hyperion]

ANDROID you Clever Bastard. De-Phoneticised my name. Now what does it mean?
Ack the cowboy.... subway on Main St...

 

[sleepy]

The couple against the lamp post with the cowboy is probably Jane's Addiction.
They're hanging together.
Somebody at another site thought the cowboy is for the band Cowboy Junkies.

 

[Meecro Hyperion]

Although DaVinci painted Mona LIsa..his painting has no kid or child......which makes it a "Madonna ..mother w/child, also Known as Mary mother of Jesus, holding Jesus...

True, but why have Mona Lisa holding the child?
Isn't the statue of the Madonna on the pedestrian crossing the Madonna reference?

 

[PcwaG]

Would the group of Hare Krishna's (behind the blue brothers in white) be considered, The cult?
